Sponsor Animal Update: Toby

Toby: 2nd Quarter 2010

Our dear little Toby, with big, puppy dog eyes, continues to do well in the Animal League’s care. As a precaution, Toby often has to wear a cone around his neck to prevent him from licking his fur. The staff is worried that he may ingest his fur and be unable to swallow it or choke due to his Megaesophagus condition. Twice a day he is brought to a special, calm holding area for his feedings. He is maintaining a healthy appetite. He can be seen walking on the Animal League campus each day with a volunteer or a staff member. Evidently, he’s a favorite to walk among the volunteers who he has come to know and love. If Toby trusts you, he wants to be your best friend.

North Shore Animal League America—the world's largest no-kill rescue and adoption organization—has saved the lives of over 1 million dogs, cats, puppies and kittens at risk of euthanasia. Through our many innovative programs, we reach across the country to rescue animals from overcrowded shelters, unwanted litters, puppy mills, natural disasters and other emergencies and find them permanent, loving homes. As a leader in the no-kill movement, we are dedicated to promoting shelter pet adoptions; encouraging spay/neuter programs; reducing animal cruelty; ending euthanasia; and advancing the highest standards in animal welfare.
